phew talk about variances, you will leave me constructing a confidence interval the whole night coz im a sucker on these,
but for now i will take it as $2900.
thanks for sharing by the way, oh and i didn't mean to pick on what you said earlier, just leaving my humble impressions.
No harm done.
The price on these is definitely going up each year.

I know that the green L3000 is (maybe) the hardest to get, but 15000 USD?
The L3000G is definitely the hardest Audio-Technica to come by, just based on the number produced alone. I was shocked when I saw how much they go for too!

These W3000ANV cans are mighty tempting. To those who have owned it and have given it a good listen, are they worth getting? What is their sound signature like?
Also, how often does Audio Technica release limited edition headphones such as these? There seems to be many limited edition AT cans over the past couple of years.
Lots of good impressions in this thread if you go back a bit.
As for how often limited headphones are released:
1996 = W10VTG
1997 = W10LTD
1998 = W11JPN
2000 = W11R
2001 = W2002 (40th Anniversary)
2011 = W3000ANV (50th Anniversary)
As you can see, they used to release them every year or so. After the W2002 though, they seem to be limited to anniversaries only. Also keep in mind there are non-limited edition woodies that they release every now and then:
1999 = W100
2002 = W1000
2005 = W5000
2010 = W1000X
